Bleeding From Ears After Cleaning Wax. Should I Be Worried?
Hi, I went to the doc today due to what I thought to be a sinus and/or ear infection. My ears were impacted with wax, and so she proceeded to 'clean out' my right ear. She was very aggressive, and it was painful at points. A few hours later, while at the store (filling my prescription and grabbing a few groceries) I started to feel like my ear was 'filling up' again. Once I got home, I grabbed a kleenex and dabbed it in my ear to find blood. It has not stopped bleeding since...it has been a couple of hours now. It is dark blood. Do I need to see a doctor again? Should I be concerned?
